Curly K Everything was right. Started steady kept an even pace, negative second half and if had managed to only run 13.1 miles rather than 13.25 would have managed a pb!! Loved the stats by run Pix. Passed 229 in second half and 22 passed me. Felt fantastic. Will try and run more than one half a year and may try for a pb next year. Werrington Joggers 1:53:04 1:54:36 1:55:00 1:54:36 57.23

BrianJ Although it was warm, conditions were good and probably should have done a PB here. I need my pacers back!
Excellent support on the course, much better than I expected for a corporate style event. Would certainly like to have another go North Herts Road Runners 2:11:44 2:13:49 2:13:49 51.23

Girlie Not sure if I can PB this year, but 2nd best time would be good, a tinjy pb of 2:05 would be better!
***UPDATE*** A nice race today, slowed to help my mate after she was struggling mentally at 8 miles when I caught her up and to come to the aid of another runner at 12.5 miles, so a good result. Lonely Goat RC 2:06:18 2:09:45 2:08:00 2:15:41 50.54
JovialGnome Enjoyed it much more this year than I did last year, maybe that's because I was 9 mins quicker! Nice race, well organized, will be back! Unaffiliated 2:09:14 2:09:14 2:16:05 50.38
hopisen Went brilliantly. Did first halftrying to keep HR fairly steady, then felt stong at halfway, so upped pace. When I got t ten miles, realised that if I pushed hard, had a chance of first ever sub two, so just went for it.  ended up in a full sprint to the finish as had no idea if i was ahead or behind schedule - hit an all time high on Heart rate of 195! - could have just enjoyed last 100m it turns out - but so pleased -espedcially as turns out the last 10k of the half would have been a 10k PB!.

So diet seems to be working. PB by over 11 mins, and 21 mins better than Peterbrough two years ago.

 Not the most scenic course, but lots of support, well organised, flat and friendly.  Only downside is I now have to train much harder to get a PB in Norwich Unaffiliated 1:48:42 1:51:52 1:58:26 49.85
